Since, the ball is not replaced; hence the number of balls left in bag is 29
Hence, the probability the second ball is black:
= ¹⁸C₁ / ²⁹C₁ = 18 / 29
Required probability,
= (2 / 5) × (18 / 29)
= 36 / 145

Question 22 Explanation: 

Let the speed of the second train be xkm/hr
Relative speed = (x + 50) km/hr
= [(x + 50) * 5 / 18] m/sec
=[(250 + 5x) / 18] m/sec
Distance covered = (108 + 112) = 220 m
Therefore, (250 + 5x) / 18 = 6
250 + 5x = 660 x = 82 km/hr

B	could have been mayor of Tallahassee
C	will have been mayor of Tallahassee
D	will be mayor of Tallahassee

Question 29 Explanation: 

"By next month" used together with "for two years" indicates something that will be completed in the future, so future perfect "will have been" is the correct tense.
"Will be" [(A), (C)] means she will be mayor for two years beginning in the future.
Moreover, "Mayor" [(A), (B)] is incorrectly capitalized: it is not used as a title/name here (like "Mayor Jones"). "Could have been" (E) changes the meaning.

Question 33

The ratio of Cost price and Selling price is 4 : 5. The profit percent is ?

A	25
B	10
C	20
D	30

Question 33 Explanation: 

1/30th of the tank is filled by pipe B in 1 minutes
1/60th of the tank is emptied by pipe C in 1 minutes
Part of tank filled in the first 6 minutes = 6*[(1/20)+(1/30)] = ½
When all pipes are opened, part of tank filled in 1 minutes = (1/12)-(1/60) = 1/15
Time required to fill the remaining ½ of the tank = (1/2) / (1/15) = 7.5
Total time = 6+7.5 = 13.5 minutes

Question 34

A	E % B $ F $ C
B	C % B $ F $ E
C	B $ F $ E % C
D	C @ B % F % E

Question 34 Explanation: 

C @ B → C is the sister of B
B % F → B is the son of F
Hence, → C is the daughter of F
F % E → F is the son of E
Hence, → C is the granddaughter of E.

Question 35

If the area of two circles are in the ratio 169:196 then the ratio of their radii is?

A	10:11
B	12:13
C	13:14
D	11:12

Question 35 Explanation: 

If r and R are radii if two circles, then
pi * r^2 /pi * R^2 = 169 / 196
r^2 / R^2 = 169 / 196 = (13/14)^2
so r/R = 13/14t
